Rhythm 1: (4x) 
F# F#  D 
F# G# A 

Rhythm 2: F# F#  D F# G# A F# F#  D B B/C# G# A 

(w/ Rhythm 2) 2x: 
Hey Mister, don't point at me 
You shout rhetoric nonsense like a Pavlovian model 
Responding to his questions 

Hey teacher, arrogance is bliss 
You spend your time turning water into life 
As if you were God's forman 

(chorus) 
A E F# A A F# 
Is it any wonder things seem so awry? 

A E F# B C#/B 
We swim in a sea of confusion and don't have to think to survive 

So nobody listens 

Rhythm 1: 2x 

(w/ Rhythm 2) 2x: 
Hey recluse, don't shout at me 
You proclaim yourself expert by extensions of methods 
Detailed in your magazines 

Hey downer, don't pray on me 
We've all got bum raps that torment us day to day 
That we hoist on our own shoulders 

(w/ chorus rhythm) 
Is it any wonde people pass you by? 
Your plea for understanding is heard as desperate lies 
So nobody listens 

(w/ rhythm 1) 
I can't help you 
I can't help you 
I can't help you 
I can't help you, now 

D A F# D A F# 
Is it any wonder things are so inane? 

D A F# 
So many quests for compassion 

B B/C# 
Are just for someone's personal gain 

So nobody listens 

Rhythm 1: 2x 

Nobody listens to you
